Chandigarh, April 12

A local court acquitted a man in a snatching case after the prosecution failed to prove charges.

The police had arrested the accused, Kuber Inder Singh Hundal, on a complaint of one Bhola, who had stated that on October 7 last year, he was talking on his mobile phone when his phone was snatched in Sector 56.

During investigation, Hundal was arrested in the case. The police filed a chargesheet against him. Finding prima facie case, the court framed charges against the accused under Sections 379-A and 411 of the IPC to which he pleaded not guilty and claimed trial.

After hearing of the arguments, the court acquitted the accused of the charges framed against him.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
